LED Light Panels lead the way
We’ve been particularly excited to work with one of the leading research facilities in the region in a long-term project aimed to help create a better work environment, save costs and reduce energy consumption.
We pride ourselves on having great working relationships with high quality suppliers who can partner with us to provide a solution led approach to our customers’ needs and are highly experienced in offering lighting solutions to organisations. This includes Glamox, a leading lighting supplier, who helped us to fulfil the unique and bespoke design components needed in this project.
The brief
Our customer needed minimum disruption to the everyday working at the facility and to stage the project into several phases.
The lighting scheme was to be programmable and adaptable to the different working environments throughout areas of the facility. It also needed to be low maintenance and help the centre achieve its goals in reducing energy consumption and offer long-term benefits to its workers.
Existing lighting fixtures were not suitable for the installation and so we were keen to find a solution which meant we did not have to make infrastructure changes to the ceilings in order to install the new lighting. This would have added cost, time and disruption to the project and so, if we couldn’t make the existing ceiling work, the project wouldn’t have been viable to go ahead.
The solution
Working with the facilities department at the organisation, we created a project plan of works to avoid disruption of employees and set about specifying the right product. We chose Glamox as our supply partner for this project due to their focus on quality and enhanced 5-year warranty for their products.
To minimise works required to ceilings we commissioned bespoke light fixings that could house the LED panels within the existing recesses of the ceiling, resulting in a seamless installation that would require minimum maintenance and installation disruption across the premises.
We specified a totally programmable lighting scheme which had several core benefits including,
- Smart lighting sensors which activate lighting on movement
- Varying brightness in different areas eg. near windows or working areas
- Differing panel sizes to suit the environment.
Why use LED in a commercial workspace?
There are many benefits to using LED lighting panels in all sorts of commercial environments from industrial and manufacturing, scientific and healthcare, education or retail.
With advancements in technology moving at a rapid pace there are so many solutions on the market which, combined with our skills and expertise in this area, can help you to capitalise on this vital area of your premises. Some of the benefits of using LED lighting include,
- Human centric lighting – adjust the daily rhythms and improve motivation, concentration, well-being, and productivity of your workforce
